Cyprus

Regions

The Republic of Cyprus is divided into four eparchies (districts) which are in turn subdivided into a series of municipalities. The districts are Larnaca; Lemesos; Nicosia; and Paphos.

Policy responses

Due to the size of the country policy responses tend to be devised and implemented at a national level rather than at a regional or local level.

An overview of regional policy responses addressing health inequalities can be found in our Policy Database.

Good practices

An overview of local and regional projects and initiatives that are currently taking place or that have successfully been finalized, and that are addressing health inequality issues, can be found in our Project Database.

Key actors
